Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
She/Her/Hers

Yasmin is a compassionate and collaborative Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who supports children, youth, and adults through life’s emotional challenges. She offers a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where clients feel truly heard, understood, and empowered to heal and grow at their own pace.

Yasmin holds a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Studies and a Master’s in Counselling Psychology. She brings years of experience working in diverse settings, including child care centers, schools, autism and behavioral programs, shelters, and community mental health services. Her background has shaped a well-rounded and sensitive approach to supporting individuals across all life stages.

Yasmin works with clients navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Her therapeutic style draws on evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness. She integrates these within a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and strength-based framework, always centering her clients’ unique experiences and values.

With children and youth, Yasmin uses developmentally appropriate strategies, blending play-based therapy, talk therapy, and emotional coaching to help with emotional regulation, self-esteem, school-related issues, and family changes such as parental separation. With teens and adults, she focuses on building coping strategies, increasing resilience, and working through personal challenges.

Yasmin understands that healing isn’t linear—and neither is therapy. She offers a flexible approach: gentle when needed, direct when helpful, and always grounded in empathy and care. Whether clients seek a space to talk or are ready to pursue meaningful goals, Yasmin walks alongside them with unwavering support.
